Purer Environment. Healthier Home.
At Karma Diva we only use products and ingredients that are environmentally safe and effective. We carefully choose products that are free of harsh chemicals, are biodegradable and toxin-free giving peace of mind for you, your family, your pets, and our cleaning technicians.
Green cleaning is also about a thorough clean that improves your indoor air quality to protect the health and safety of our clients while minimizing the environmental impact.
Our Materials, Maintenance & Communication Fee (Materials Fee for brevity) covers so much more than just the refillable supplies in our kit.
This charge helps to offset the wear and tear on our equipment and the communication with our team members around your services so we can keep your notes up to date.
Even when we’re not in your home, we are often still working for you in the background communicating updates to the notes and confirming appointments. A portion of this fee helps to offset communication bonuses with our team so we can keep your invoices accurate.
The Natural Products and Ingredients we use:
• White Distilled Vinegar - Grocery Store
• Essential Oils such as Tea Tree, Lavender, Rosemary, or Eucalyptus - Co-ops or health food stores
• Bon Ami Scouring Powder - some grocery stores will carry this
• Dish Soap - We recommend Sun and Earth, Mrs. Meyers, Ecover, Method, etc. (comes in a variety of scents)
• Hydrogen Peroxide - Refillable spray bottle available at your local grocery or drugstore
• Pumice Stone - Can be found at grocery stores in the health and beauty section
• Citra Solv - Degreaser - Can be found at Co-ops and some grocery stores or online
Please note that our cleaning professionals will arrive with freshly cleaned microfiber cloths, the items listed above, a small bucket, vacuum, and squeegee mop. We can typically make it inside in one trip and prefer to be able to park within close proximity to the door we’ll need to enter.
To reduce the risk of cross contamination between homes:
We ask that our clients supply any bristled cleaning items or sponges that they’d like for us to use to tackle harder to clean areas.
*We especially ask that our clients keep 1 bristled toilet want in each bathroom so we are not asked to carry these items throughout the home.
Cleaning Services and Associated Materials Fee by type:
We ask that you please refer to this spreadsheet regarding more details about our Levels of Service from Maintenance Cleaning to Tasking.
Maintenance Cleaning Rate | $50/hr per cleaning professional | $12.50 Materials Fee: This rate is applied to cleanings that have received a thorough cleaning within 6 weeks of our scheduled appointment. This is our maintenance cleaning rate.
Maintenance Service Plus Rate | $52.50/hr per cleaning professional | $15.00 Materials Fee: This rate is applied to areas of deeper focus on a regular basis. Some households may see this rate applied to the total hourly charges and some to just a portion. Factors such as number of pets, sticky hands, heavy use, or scheduling difficulty, including travel or holiday weeks.
This rate can also be used as a middle ground to jobs that are somewhere in between our maintenance rate and our deep cleaning rate.
Deep Cleaning Rate | $55/hr per cleaning professional | $20.00 Materials Fee: We defer to our techs regarding whether or not we should charge a deep cleaning rate. In general, this rate applies for all areas that haven't seen cleaning within 7 weeks or more, or any cleaning that includes extra elbow grease.
Deep Clean Service Plus Rate | $57.50/hr per cleaning professional | $25.00 Materials Fee: This is for areas that we are asked to clean that just take extra elbow grease even than what we expect for regular Deep Cleaning. For example, if there is a need for us to spend more than 2 hours scrubbing a small bathroom, it’s likely because we’re working harder than usual. If we communicate that we’d like to include this, it’s definitely because we put in some extra care.
We reserve the right to determine when Plus Rates are to be included and will do so with a written explanation.

Reviews
“The Karma Divas are professional, friendly, always prompt, efficient and thorough. They will work in whatever capacity you specify: for me personally, I want cleaning, not straightening or a mint on my pillow, and that is specifically what they provide me. I am very happy and anticipate remaining their customer for a long time.”

"I have had the team at Karma Diva helping me out for a few years now, and they have been excellent. I would highly recommend them - in particular they've done some cool things with electronic scheduling which are great since I don't have time to answer voicemail, they have multiple methods of billing - including billing in advance so you don't have to worry about it, not to mention that they just do a great job on the cleaning!"

“Coming back to a clean house is the best part of my month. Everything is deep cleaned such as the toaster oven and baseboards! Always friendly and on time. I can't see why you wouldn't use Karma Diva to help get your house back!”
